There is a sieve in the nose,
There is a button on the head,
One hand
Yes, and that one is on the back.

What does half an orange look like?

To the other half of the orange

In summer he sleeps
In winter it burns,
The mouth opens
What they give, he swallows.

She was white and gray
A green, young one came.

Winter and spring

What always comes
Will it not move?

Both in the taiga and in the ocean
He will find any way,
Fits in your pocket
And he leads us along.
